Question

Database integration

I have DW CS3 and have just installed Coldfusion 8 Developer edition. I am trying to get DW to recognize different types of databases but on the database tab I have no way of changing it out of HTML...I have no + sign. I have read that the extensions should have been installed when I installed CF8 but I didn't see anything about DW when I installed it. Various tutorials suggest that if the extensions didn't automatically install then I could download them from adobe but so far I have been unable to find them.
Anyone have any ideas?
Am I missing the obvious? :)

Thanks

Look for Cold Fusion Update for Dreamweaver .. about the 4th one down the
list on this page.
And make sure your site definition is set to Cold Fusion on the testing
server tab. Then restart the CF Server.
